The film-style heist is identical to a £1m engine theft just three years ago.

A spokesman from West Midlands Police said: "“Three men, aged 47, 40 and 29 were arrested on suspicion of conspiracy to steal and have been bailed pending further enquiries. The investigation is on-going.”

The gang had struck shortly after 10.30pm on Tuesday, January 31, by brazenly driving through manned security gates in a stolen lorry.
